A functioning NHL player at this point makes the signing look amazing when compared to the 10 million dollars the Flames paid to Ladislav Smid and Dennis Wideman this year.
The Flames are paying Stajan 3.1 to, at this point, be a less than adequate 4th liner/healthy scratch. Next year I wonder if he even cracks the lineup for more than 30 games.
In the grand scheme of things, while the Brouwer contract is not good, it's not hte worst deal in the conference, the division or even on the team at this point.
The best we can hope for is that it becomes the worst contract on the team. A situation where Brouwer is the worst contract on the team is an enviable position from where the Flames are at now and is likely indicative of a solid playoff team.

I guess you could argue Tre's worst signing played 0 games for the team this year. And will be paid again next year to play zero games.
I agree that Brouwer's deal is not the worst in the conference or division. It is the worst on the team unless we're still counting Raymond.
